Carrot Halwa / Gajar Ka Halwa

 
 
I have been trying to blog the recipe of Carrot Halwa and Carrot Badam Kheer since a year. Somehow it was not getting included due to two main reasons. First the sweet might get over before I take a picture or the picture taken might be extremely bad to upload. But this time, I managed to get a decent picture of Carrot Halwa. Every time I make the sweets, I try to tell myself not to eat more than few bites. Oh, its really difficult to resist the temptation though.!!!

Ingredients
Grated Carrot - 7 Cups
Ricotta Cheese / Kova / Mawa - 1 Cup
Sugar - 3 Cups
Melted Butter / Ghee - 1/2 cup ( As Required )
Roasted Cashewnuts - To Garnish
Dry Grapes - To Garnish
Cardamom Powder - 2 tsp
Thick Milk - 2 Cups
 
Method
Peel the carrot skin and grate them nicely and make 7 cups of grated carrot ready.
 
In a round thick bottomed vessel, cook them in milk on medium heat till they get cooked fully. You would notice the change in its texture and colour once its cooked thoroughly.
 
Add powdered sugar into the pan and mix them well. Add the cardamom powder and 1 tbsp. of ghee into the pan. Cook them on medium heat and stir constantly.
 
When the sugar syrup completely blends with the cooked carrot, add the mawa / kova or ricotta cheese into the cooking vessel now. Mix them well and slowly add the remaining ghee at regular intervals. When the carrot halwa solidifies little bit, garnish with ghee roasted cashew nuts and dry grapes and enjoy.
